# Dapr pub/sub In this quickstart, there is a publisher microservice `checkout` and a subscriber microservice `order-processor` to demonstrate how Dapr enables a publish-subscribe pattern. `checkout` generates messages and publishes to a specific orders topic, and `order-processor` subscribers listen for messages of topic orders. Visit [this](https://docs.dapr.io/developing-applications/building-blocks/pubsub/) link for more information about Dapr and Pub-Sub. > **Note:** This example leverages the Dapr client SDK. If you are looking for the example using only HTTP [click here](../http). This quickstart includes one publisher: - Java client message generator `checkout` And one subscriber: - Java subscriber `order-processor` ## Pre-requisites * [Dapr and Dapr Cli](https://docs.dapr.io/getting-started/install-dapr-cli/). * Java JDK 17 (or greater): * [Microsoft JDK 17](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/java/openjdk/download#openjdk-17) * [Oracle JDK 17](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/?er=221886#java17) * [OpenJDK 17](https://jdk.java.net/17/) * [Apache Maven](https://maven.apache.org/install.html) version 3.x. ## Run all apps with multi-app run template file: This section shows how to run both applications at once using [multi-app run template files](https://docs.dapr.io/developing-applications/local-development/multi-app-dapr-run/multi-app-overview/) with `dapr run -f .`. This enables to you test the interactions between multiple applications. 1. Install dependencies: ```bash cd ./order-processor mvn clean install cd .. cd ./checkout mvn clean install cd .. ``` 2. Open a new terminal window and run the multi app run template: ```bash dapr run -f . ``` The terminal console output should look similar to this: ```text == APP - checkout-sdk == 563 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 1 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:18.434 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-3] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 1 == APP - checkout-sdk == 1576 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 2 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:19.419 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-4] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 2 == APP - checkout-sdk == 2587 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 3 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:20.431 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-5] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 3 == APP - checkout-sdk == 3602 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 4 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:21.447 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-6] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 4 == APP - checkout-sdk == 4612 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 5 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:22.455 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-7] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 5 == APP - checkout-sdk == 5624 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 6 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:23.468 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-8] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 6 == APP - checkout-sdk == 6631 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 7 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:24.474 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-9] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 7 == APP - checkout-sdk == 7643 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 8 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:25.487 INFO 82828 --- [io-8080-exec-10] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 8 == APP - checkout-sdk == 8649 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 9 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:26.492 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-2] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 9 == APP - checkout-sdk == 9662 [main] INFO com.service.CheckoutServiceApplication - Published data: 10 == APP - order-processor-sdk == 2023-09-04 13:57:27.504 INFO 82828 --- [nio-8080-exec-1] c.s.c.OrderProcessingServiceController : Subscriber received: 10 ``` 3. Stop and clean up application processes ```bash dapr stop -f . ``` ## Run a single app at a time with Dapr (Optional) An alternative to running all or multiple applications at once is to run single apps one-at-a-time using multiple `dapr run .. -- dotnet run` commands. This next section covers how to do this. ### Run Java message subscriber app with Dapr 1. Navigate to directory and install dependencies: ```bash cd ./order-processor mvn clean install ``` 2. Run the Java subscriber app with Dapr: ```bash cd ./order-processor dapr run --app-port 8080 --app-id order-processor-sdk --resources-path ../../../components -- java -jar target/OrderProcessingService-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar ``` ### Run Java message publisher app with Dapr 1. Navigate to the directory and install dependencies: ```bash cd ./checkout mvn clean install ``` 2. Run the Java publisher app with Dapr: ```bash cd ./checkout dapr run --app-id checkout-sdk --resources-path ../../../components -- java -jar target/CheckoutService-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar ``` ```bash dapr stop --app-id checkout-sdk dapr stop --app-id order-processor-sdk ```
